Two classic tales to chill the blood, adapted and performed by UK-based writer, actor and theatre-maker Adam Z. Robinson
In ‘The Monkey’s Paw’ by W.W. Jacobs, the White family are visited by an old friend who brings with him a strange object, said to be able to grant wishes to anyone who possesses it. As the old saying goes: be careful what you wish for! In ‘The Upper Berth’ by F. Marion Crawford, Cabin 105 of an ill-fated ocean liner has many strange tales attached to it about the thing that dwells in the upper berth. But none of the stories can be true… can they?
Not for the faint of heart, join us for these pleasingly terrifying tales at Fredericton Library on Thursday, December 14th at 6:30pm.
NB: Stories are not suitable for younger children. An age of 14+ is suggested and responsibility lies with parents of any children present.

Dans « The Monkey’s Paw » de W.W. Jacobs, la famille White reçoit la visite d’un vieil ami qui apporte avec lui un objet étrange, censé pouvoir exaucer les vœux de quiconque le possède. Comme le dit le vieil adage : faites attention à ce que vous souhaitez ! Dans « The Upper Berth » de F. Marion Crawford, la cabine 105 d’un paquebot malheureux contient de nombreuses histoires étranges sur la chose qui habite dans la couchette supérieure. Mais aucune de ces histoires ne peut être vraie… n’est-ce pas ? Pas pour les âmes sensibles, rejoignez-nous pour ces contes agréablement terrifiants à la bibliothèque de Fredericton le vendredi 15 décembre.
NB : Les histoires ne conviennent pas aux plus jeunes. Un âge de 14 ans et plus est suggéré et la responsabilité incombe aux parents de tout enfant présent.
